Government fully accepts review led by Karen CarneySaturday 3pm could become a dedicated live broadcast slot
The government has accepted every recommendation in the Karen Carney-led review of women’s football. They include supporting full professionalism of the top two divisions, a lifting of minimum standards, full unionisation of the Women’s Super League and Championship, cost controls at the top and for 3pm on Saturday to be considered as a dedicated broadcast slot for women’s football.
An implementation group of key stakeholders will meet next March and July to provide updates. “I’m encouraged that the government is providing their full backing to my review and renewing their commitment to develop women’s football in the UK and fulfil its potential to be a world-beating sport,” Carney said.
